Yesterday afternoon during the Entertainment Basketball Classic at Rucker Park in Harlem, Reebok Classic launched the Question Mid EBC and A5 sneakers as part of the iconic Question Mid’s 20th anniversary this year.
Cam’ron was on site to support the Question Mid EBC and Jadakiss was also on-site supporting the new Question Mid A5 sneaker. Jahlil Beats as well as Sway Calloway were also on-site to support the Question Mid launches.
Cam’ron and Jadakiss met with fans and watched the All-Star EBC game from the sidelines where one team wore the Question Mid A5 and the other wore the EBC style for a true head-to-head match up.
The Question Mid EBC launches today at retailers nationwide and the Question Mid A5 will launch next Friday, August 15th.
QUESTION MID EBC:
A week before being selected as the #1 pick in the 1996 NBA Draft, Iverson went to Rucker Park for the 1996 Entertainer’s Basketball Classic (EBC). Largely credited with introducing his version of street ball to the larger basketball community, Iverson wowed everyone with his bombastic, unapologetic style of play that he would hone throughout his career.
To commemorate Iverson’s historic appearance at Rucker Park, Reebok Classic created the Question Mid EBC. The style pays homage to the color scheme that Iverson wore that evening, with an upper made of jersey mesh, gold suede and navy leather. The words “Standing Room Only” replaces the Question logo at the collar of each shoe, referencing the packed fans that night at Rucker Park.
QUESTION MID A5:
Allen Iverson, Jadakiss and Reebok have had a long and colorful history together. In 2001, the three parties came together to shoot a game-changing commercial for Iverson’s A5 sneaker launch that year.
To commemorate this historic moment, the Question Mid “A5” takes color inspiration from the OG A5 sneaker, with a sleek black leather and mesh upper accented by reflective grey piping and toe box. Hits of red adorn the sole with a distinctive red Question logo at the collar and a Roman numeral “V” logo at the heel.
